In news that seems like a perfect metaphor for a zombie show, AMC has teased that it’s working on a plan to keep The Walking Dead going—in one form or another—forever. That comes from Bloomberg, which says AMC is talking with “several large media companies” about plans to keep The Walking Dead brand alive for “another…

Welcome back to Trailer Happy Hour, where not all trailers are created equal. But even if not every promo or teaser—especially for TV—has the clout to make it at Comic-Con’s big Hall H, we still love them all, and pledge to gather them together in one safe place for you to conveniently devour. (That metaphor got away…

AMC has set official premiere dates for two of its returning series that both sound kind of like orders you’d yell at someone in very specific situations: Into The Badlands and Fear The Walking Dead. (It helps if you imagine they both have exclamation points at the ends of their titles.) The network—which renewed its…

Robert Kirkman might be getting ready to put down The Walking Dead comic-book series, but its TV adaptations were going strong today at Comic-Con. AMC released a trailer for season 8 of The Walking Dead, which already looks to be much less of a slog than last season. The network also shared a preview of the second…

Fear The Walking Dead’s “cowboys vs. Indians” plotline has been fraught since it was introduced, because this isn’t a show that does nuance well. Unlike its predecessor, this spin-off is at its best when homing in on the Clark family and ignoring the larger “we’re the walking dead” human-on-human warring. The tighter…

There’s a lot going on in the competent if slow “Red Dirt.” A little more than a third through this season, Madison and company have settled into the new location to face off against threats internal and external, none of them zombies. Madison once more shows off her ruthlessness, with her and Troy’s fully blossomed…

Fear The Walking Dead sacrificed a lot to get the Clarks to the Otto compound. The first two episodes were very clumsy, as the writers knew where the Clarks needed to go but seemed to have little interest in making their journey there meaningful or interesting. Now that the Clarks are at the ranch, they should stay…

Last week, it wasn’t clear if Victor was having a premonition when Daniel Salazar, his “guardian angel,” gave him water as he sat locked in a cell. This week is dedicated solely to what happened to Daniel since the fire, where everyone assumes he died. I can’t say I was burning with curiosity about what may have…

Is this the same show as last week’s two-parter? “Teotwawki” is everything Fear The Walking Dead should be. There’s tension. There’s stakes. There’s a zombie head in a cage. It’s the strongest outing this lackluster spin-off has aired since its early first-season episodes, and it achieves this relative high by…

Every season of Fear The Walking Dead and its progenitor The Walking Dead take place around a central local: a prison, a farm, a hotel. At first blush of Fear The Walking Dead’s third season, it seems that the show is setting up a military base as the home/prison for our greatly diminished crew of Madison, Travis,…

At this point, everyone on Fear The Walking Dead has had to do some questionable and/or objectionable things to stay alive, even though the world’s not yet overrun with walkers. Even Alicia (Alycia Debnam-Carey) has taken the life of a fellow impending walker-apocalypse survivor in order to protect a loved one. A new…
